Absolutely. We provide bulk packaging options including larger boxes, shipper containers, and classroom-pack configurations that optimize per-unit costs for educational distributors and institutions.
Are your crayon boxes safe for children?
Yes, we use non-toxic materials and child-safe construction methods. Our printing uses soy-based inks that are safe for products used by children, and we avoid sharp edges or small parts that could present safety concerns.
What sustainable options are available?
We offer fully sustainable crayon packaging using FSC-certified paper options, soy-based inks, and recyclable or compostable constructions. These eco-friendly choices support your brand environmental commitments while meeting parent expectations for responsible products.
